It's either very late in his career, or possibly even post-retirement, like when he coached for Brooklyn in 1938.

Most definitely. I just watched a clip of Babe v. Walter Johnson. 1942? It's somewhere around then. You're right.

Ruth
Ruth is tough as his weight and look was always changing. I assume this is due to his lifestyle; excessive food, drink and exercise habits.
This is definitely not as old as indicated. It is from his playing days with the Yankees in the early 30s. Attached is my type 1 photo by Thorne. Also attached is a 1934 Japanese bromide card.

Ruth photo
I have the same photo except it is an 8X10. It was signed in 1947. I either read somewhere or was told once many years ago that it was his "favorite" photo to sign…As to the date--would think mid-30's if I was to take a guess.
